I think that generally, a "thin client" displays GUI type stuff, while a

protocol. They are kinda like X servers, only for Windoze.

I used to work for Televideo. They are still
alive and kicking, Their
offices are now in San Jose, CA.
They currently have a line of thin clients. no longer do they do
terminals.
What is the dividing line between a "thin client" and a "terminal"?
